Can It Rank Among DC’s Top 10 Highest-Grossing Movies Of All Time?

Published by Parlour News

Supergirl Worldwide Box Office (Photo Credit: Instagram) James Gunn’s 2025 film Superman, the first entry in the DCU, a soft reboot of the DC Extended Universe (DCEU), turned out to be a critical and commercially successful venture. In addition to receiving positive reviews from both critics and audiences, the David Corenswet-starrer grossed $618.7 million, against a $225 million budget. Now, all eyes are on whether Supergirl, the second film in the DC Universe, will be able to replicate the success of its predecessor. Starring House of the Dragon alum Milly Alcock as the titular superhero, Supergirl is set to hit the big screen on June 26, 2026. However, as per a recent projection by Box Office Theory, the film is tracking to earn between $47 million and $65 million in its opening weekend in North America. This range is significantly lower than Superman’s $125 million domestic debut. Having said that, it’s just an early projection so the final opening figures can be confirmed only after the film’s theatrical release. Now, let’s take a look at …

‘Runs below par; spinners made quite a few errors’: Axar Patel after DC’s loss to KKR | Cricket News

3 min readUpdated: May 8, 2026 11:26 PM IST Delhi Capitals skipper Axar Patel said that both the batters and the spinners made errors during the Kolkata Knight Riders match, which ultimately cost the hosts dearly at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Friday. DC batters were choked out by the KKR bowlers, especially the spinners but the Delhi tweakers couldn’t get the same purchase from the pitch when they came in to bowl. “I think the runs were definitely below par and at the same time the spinners made quite a few mistakes. Looking at the way the pitch behaved, I feel the spinners did make errors. But at the same time, if you notice, we lost five wickets in two-three overs, and I think that’s where the momentum slipped away from us. That’s probably something we need to think about because the same thing happened against CSK, we started well, and then suddenly wickets kept falling,” Axar said after the post-match chat. “You can’t solve it in a complicated way. While Ashutosh and I …

2 min readApr 28, 2026 07:30 AM IST The list of excuses for Delhi Capitals’ collapse against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru on Monday began with the shock defeat to Punjab Kings two days prior. Fronting up to the media after a dire performance from his batting lineup, skipper Axar Patel admitted that the defeat to Punjab on Saturday, where the visitors managed the highest run-chase in IPL history, impacted his players. Axar said that not only was it a huge psychological blow, after which they had to dust themselves off quickly and play again, but also influenced the thinking of the batters about the kind of pitch they should expect. “After what happened in the last game (not being able to defend 264 against Punjab), I feel like the team’s morale went down. After scoring so many runs, nine times out of ten, you win the game. But the team were down that they could not defend that score. I felt there was a little hesitation because of that,” he said at the Feroz Shah …

2 min readNew DelhiApr 28, 2026 07:00 AM IST In the aftermath of the Delhi Capitals’ spectacular capitulation against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in New Delhi on Monday, skipper Axar Patel said that not just the franchise but the batters themselves should take responsibility for improving their technique. Axar’s comments came on a day when the Delhi batters were woefully exposed by a sensational new-ball spell by Josh Hazlewood and Bhuvaneshwar Kumar. The duo had DC reeling at eight for six and eventually left them at the lowest-ever powerplay score in a completed IPL game, 13 for six. They looked evidently technically deficient, as Hazlewood’s Test match lengths on pace, and Bhuvaneshwar’s ability to move it both ways, ripped through them. Delhi were eventually all out for the meagre total of 75. RCB cantered to an nine-wicket win within 6.3 overs. “You need personal preparation for this. You can say we need to train for this as a team but you need to take personal responsibility to prepare to bat on all kinds of surfaces, …

2 min readUpdated: Apr 27, 2026 10:34 PM IST The Delhi Capitals suffered a demoralising nine-wicket defeat to the Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Monday. The hosts were undone by an outstanding new ball spell from Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Josh Hazlewood, who ripped the heart out of the DC batting line-up to reduce them to 8/6, which eventually culminated in them being bowled out for 75 in 16.3 overs. DC recorded the lowest ever powerplay score in IPL history, at 13/6, after their top and middle-order was ripped apart by the RCB new ball pair. Captain Axar Patel admitted that he did not understand what had happened to his side, admitting that they had to move on quickly from this result. “Even I don’t know what happened. That’s why they say you have to be on your toes in cricket. We have to move on from this match. From today’s point of view, you can say it did affect, but you can look back, if the catches were taken or had …

2 min readApr 18, 2026 08:30 PM IST Just over 10 days ago, David Miller was the talk of IPL 2026 after he could not close out a match against Gujarat Titans at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. At the heart of his failure to take DC over the line was his not taking a single off the penultimate ball and then not winning the game off the last ball. On Saturday, the South African left-hander redeemed himself in the chase against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, where his unbeaten 22 runs off 10 balls took his side, in the chase of 176 runs, in the last over. Miller walked out to bat in the 17th over after DC captain Axar Patel had to retire hurt. The southpaw said that his partner, Tristan Stubbs, thanked him for closing out the match in the last over. “When I walked out, Stubbo said to me to keep the intensity really hard, and that helped. Always good finishing off games with Stubbo, and he just said ‘thank you so much, you …

3 min readApr 9, 2026 07:17 PM IST Former England captain Kevin Pietersen has backed David Miller after the South African left-hander came under heavy criticism for not taking Delhi Capitals (DC) over the line in their IPL 2026 match against Gujarat Titans (GT) on Wednesday. The 44-year-old praised Miller for walking out to bat despite nursing a hand injury, adding that his ball striking was “absolutely unreal”. “David Miller batted beautifully last night. His ball striking was absolutely unreal. Many wouldn’t have gone back out to bat with his hand injury, but he did! The way he was batting, he wanted to finish the game and trusted himself. That Is Sport! At least he got us a great finish!” Pietersen wrote on X (formerly Twitter) on Thursday.

Kuldeep Yadav backs attacking mindset ahead of DC’s MI clash in IPL 2026: ‘You will be hit for runs in T20s’ | Cricket News

5 min readApr 3, 2026 11:12 PM IST Delhi Capitals’ left-arm wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav’s dismissal of Mitchell Marsh highlighted his wicket-taking ability and also his courage to stick to what works for him. This was during the team’s season opener, an away match against Lucknow Super Giants earlier this week. Off the first ball of the 10th over, Kuldeep bowled wide outside off stump. Just as the ball began to spin back, Marsh moved his front foot out of the way and unleashed the slog sweep to hit it into the stands beyond deep mid-wicket. Two balls later, Kuldeep’s line was straighter on the middle stump, but the ball was slightly slower. Marsh saw another opportunity to hit a six. He targeted the straight boundary, but the ball didn’t turn toward the right-hander, and the trajectory was straighter. Marsh mistimed the shot and was caught at mid-off. Credit to Kuldeep for not bowling faster through the air despite being hit for a six by Marsh. He operated around 84-85 kph and gave the ball …
